All Hail The LCS!

It pains me to read other bloggers’ laments concerning their Local Card Shop(s), particularly with how well my LCS owner treats me. I always have a place to go to talk baseball and shake off the estrogen (besides sharing the house with my wife and daughter, the new dog is female, too!) and of course to browse cards. Here’s another great example: I dropped an email to Mark at Baseball Plus asking what his hours were this week; in his reply, he also mentioned “I have some cards for you.”

All told, 12 of the 14 AU/GU cards were ones I needed (and the other two are good trade bait), probably a couple dozen other cards including some nice parallels and s#’d cards, and another dozen or so that I already had but would also make good trade bait.

Plus, all at a fair price. Well, I’m assuming a fair price; I haven’t brought them back in to let him know what I’m buying from him and what I’m not, but they’ve always been a fair price in the past. And now I know where the $25 gift certificate in my Christmas stocking is going! Thanks again, Mark.
